It really depends on the severity of the issue and your individual health goals. Symptoms treatment meaning just feeling better without much structural correction can usually be attained within 6-12 treatments usually performed at 2-3x/week. Corrective care usually takes more treatment over a longer period of time because the treatment goals are related to spinal and postural alignment. That requires restoring proper joint alignment and motion, eliminating nervous system interference, improving proprioception and balancing muscular tensions. These changes can usually be made in a 3-6 month period depending on severity of faults. I hope you find this info helpful. Take care and be well. Dr. Eric Miller - Orland Park, IL
